Kitto Japanese Restaurant (Granville)

Kitto Japanese Restaurant (833 Granville Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, phone: 604-687-6622) is a very popular spot for authentic Japanese cuisine, at lunch or dinner. It is located on the Granville Street strip downtown, very close to the Commodore Ballroom and the Orpheum Theatre (home of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra). I enjoyed the Smoked Salmon Roll (pictured below, $4.25), as well as the Unagi Don (also pictured below, $11.95) which is BBQ Eel served on rice with a garnish of Japanese pickle and seaweed. For more photos please visit my previous review.

Vana Vietnamese Cuisine at Tinseltown Mall Food Court

Vana Vietnamese Cuisine is a fast food vendor at the Tinseltown mall (view map, address: 88 W Pender, Vancouver, BC, Canada, phone: 604-806-0799), on the level below the movie theatres (which, incidentally have discounted movies on Tuesdays, for $8.75 a ticket). 

The food court is cash only, but some great deals can be had here, including the Vietnamese crepes with salad (pictured below, around $5.50). There is also an excellent Korean/Chinese fusion full-service sit-down restaurant in the mall called Wild Ginger (click here for review).

For more info on the mall’s location and food court, please visit my previous review (click here). It’s located really close to GM Place Stadium, the Stadium skytrain station, and BC Place Stadium downtown, on the border between the main downtown area and Chinatown / downtown east side.
